Jensen Marine Water Resistant Stereo Housing

This was replacing an old broken housing that no longer had its shield. To the point of one of the other reviews, it is bigger than my old one and required about a 1/4" bigger opening in both height and width. The holes also did not line up with the old one. I wasn't concerned about it, since I had no idea the brand of the old one, so couldn't match it up anyway. Once I cut the opening out, it installed easily and so far, seems like a nice unit.A couple of cautions. There was no paper mounting template which there should be, so if your installing this from scratch, you'll need to measure carefully before cutting in to your boat. Also, the spring loaded door is cool, but when it opens it requires space up above the opening to roll up in to (about 1/2"). My dash has an encapsulated wood reinforcement right above where the unit goes, and even after opening the height up to fit by moving it down, I still had to shave a little material off so it would open and close smoothly.We'll see how it holds up, but so far so good.

I've installed (5) of these on motorcycle fairings. (4- black ones, 1-white) They are very good. My only beef (thus a 4 instead of 5) is that they should include a template for cutting the hole to the correct size. I've installed so many, I've made my own template, but most customers will only do it once.

My experience with this unit was very good. Yes: It was larger than the factory opening in my boat and required an enlargement of the opening. All well worth the effort, however in that the larger footprint is need to house what you cant see from the pictures: This unit has a shelf for the radio that include double sided sticky tape.. This makes for a very sturdy installation base for the radio. I coupled this housing with another great Amazon deal: The Dual XDMA6415 200-Watt AM/FM/CD/MP3/WMA Receiver with Built-In Bluetooth. Perfect combination and fit / finish.

Now this is more like it! That stupid hinge-open cover that came with the boat broke twice before I discovered this product. I did have to make the opening larger to accommodate this style, but I'm so happy I did... No more broken cover!!! Works nicely and stays out of the way in either position.

This was a quality nice water resistant radio shield, however my boat console was molded for a smaller type and this one did not fit.

Worked exactly as expected. Only thing worth mentioning is the depth of the fiberglass has to be less than 3/8" at the top for the case to open/close, but you can take a sanding bit and grind the backing of the fiberglass. Make sure you don't slide the case up with any force until you know it will fit - or you will scratch the clear cover.

Just installed the Jensen Marine stereo housing in our boat and the picture doesn't show it here but the outer frame is white and it fit perfect with the Jensen Marine stereo we purchased. Very happy we installed it and it does protect the stereo from the hot sun and rain. Highly recommend you buy one.

Product is ok.

Decent product did the job in my boat and is holding up with no problems after one Full season

Very happy with the construction...better than expected and liking the spring action on the cover !!

I thought it was a complete enclosure but was not the case

Housing is quite large but works well.

Just as expected.
